Struggling to make friends in my area, seeking advice

I feel this. I have a very hard time in person and online trying to connect to people. I never know what to say and end up saying the wrong thing

I know the feeling. I live in a small town 45 minutes south of where I grew up/am from, but I was homeless and had to take the first available place I could afford after living in motels for 8 months. The building I am in is for the handicapped and elderly...I qualify being on disability, but everyone here is 20 or 30 years older than me. I am so lonely, and it is making my increased chronic pain harder to deal with

I understand that. I am so awkward with trying to message people. A friend just told me that an app called Bumble has a friend's section. I was thinking of using it to meet people around me and actually get together with them. Might be worth looking into?

Hi. I can relate. I don't always know what to say online either, than I feel awkward after wards. I am trying to just be myself and help others if I can. I need help to in the area of finding friends who also have depression and OCD so that we can understand each other and hopefully relate.

I know exactly what you mean!
